The **Green Wrasse** is a captivating larger wrasse that can bring a vibrant splash of color to your aquarium. This fish features a long, slender body with a yellow base and striking green accents.

Reaching up to 7 inches when fully mature, the **Green Wrasse** requires a minimum tank size of 55 gallons. A sand bed of at least 2 inches is essential for burrowing. Known for their jumping ability, it's crucial to have a securely fitted lid on your tank to prevent escape.

While the **Green Wrasse** can be housed in a reef aquarium, caution is advised as they may consume smaller invertebrates and feather dusters. They are effective at managing pests like certain worms and pyramidellid snails. Generally, they are peaceful with other fish species.

As a carnivorous species, the **Green Wrasse** thrives on a diet rich in meaty foods such as mysis and brine shrimp, supplemented with high-quality pellets and flakes. An abundance of established live rock is beneficial, providing ample grazing opportunities between meals.
